Multi User Requirement

Hi
I have downloaded a free version of Fusion Essentials 7.5, which I want to use to build a site for a local golf society. Once built and published on line, we would like two or three people to be able to edit the site from different locations. I guess that each person would need to download the same software and have the ftp login details for the site.
My question is - Is this practical and if so which is the best way to do it?
Hope you can help

As long as people only work on pages designated to them, it should work ok.

Otherwise, you'll we overwriting each others work if someone were to do a full publish of the site by mistake.

Have one person do the entire site initially and then export templates of specific pages from site view for the individuals to maintain. They would take the exported template they're sent and make a new site from it on their copy of Essentials.

As long as changes are only made in the layout area of a page, you should have no problems.

To add pages and additional navigation would require coordination of everyone on the project.

You can do it if you're organized.

Thanks for your prompt reply. All seems to be quite simple providing we set out the ground rules for those using the site.
Will post an update in due course
